I.T. Carlow was the host of the womens Division ll All-Ireland semi-final match against I.T. Tallaght. Carlow’s ladies played a very impressive game and won the match by 62 points. I was asked to take pictures of both teams before and throughout the match. I organized the team photos and took plenty of candid pictures of the players.
Being a photographer is a difficult task until you get used to it. Once I got the focus, angles, and timing down, I got some very good pictures and really enjoyed myself. The camera they gave me also helped a lot with the quality of the pictures and made it easy for me to get used to.
I knew that Sport Changes Life was going to allow me to see the sport through the eyes of a coach. Now it has also given me the opportunity to see basketball through another angle which is through the lens of a camera. I have seen basketball through the lens of a player for almost 16 years but this year has given me two completely new perspectives of this great sport. Just another reason I’m extremely blessed and thankful for being a part of this dynamic program.
